Replacing character "|" in given character range
Hi Srini

Awesome. But My actual case is little different.

Actual file may be like that :
1|24xx|x96 |wewewewewe|Aps (ueasTng) Ltd(00101|2500000)|001012561|558 |NYL|GB |G179300844|1012561038 |Orriva P|LC|GB |O718483442|Y

This is one record and here field no 2 (24xx|x96 ),field no 4(Aps (ueasTng) Ltd(00101|2500000)), and field no. 11(Orriva P|LC) will be having '|' appened. Fields in Red contains the '|'. Each field has fixed length.
